🧭 Today explore the rugged northern section of Khaudum National Park around the infamous Khaudum waterholes. Deep sand tracks, dense woodland and vast unfenced terrain create a thrilling off-road safari atmosphere. 🐘 During the dry season, enormous elephant herds migrate from Botswana into northern Khaudum, with hundreds sometimes gathering around the waterholes. 🐕 This area is also one of Namibia’s best locations for rare predators including African wild dog and elusive leopard. ⭐️ Northern Khaudum rewards patience and adventure with exceptional sightings of roan antelope, tsessebe, red hartebeest and other species rarely encountered in more visited parks. The experience here is raw, remote and unforgettable. Luxury lodge located inside Khaudum NP (Namibia) All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Judy & Dan · United States
Wonderful experience, highly recommended
The suggested itinerary matched perfectly with our preferences. All accommodations were carefully chosen and according to our budget. Everything was very well planned and well communicated in advance (driving times, facilities, activities) and there was still room to profit from last minute opportunities. Our guide/driver was very knowledgeable about animals, birds and the country. He was always in a good mood and eager to satisfy our requests and questions. PEA Tours has always been quick to respond when planning the tour. Our Namibian Grand Tour was a wonderful experience and highly recommended for anyone wanting to explore Namibia.
